Empire Flint Hill 30" Ceramic Fiber Gas Log Set, Millivolt

At the center of the Flint Hill log set is a 7-piece ceramic fiber construction — a material chosen specifically because it holds and radiates heat well while developing the kind of realistic, ember-glow appearance that cast resin simply can't replicate over time. At 27 lbs total, this is a substantial, well-built assembly, not a lightweight novelty.

The millivolt control system deserves a mention here: millivolt valves generate their own small electrical current via a standing pilot, meaning this log set operates entirely without a connection to your home's electrical system. The included on/off switch handles ignition and shutdown cleanly. For homeowners who want more flexibility, the VFDR series is also compatible with a full range of optional accessories — battery-operated remote controls (FRBC, FRBTC), electric remote controls (FREC), wall switches (FWS), remote wall thermostats (TRW), and millivolt wall thermostats (TMV) — so you can add convenience later without replacing the valve.

Output is rated at 40,000 BTUs, with a natural gas operating pressure of 3.5" W.C. and inlet pressure requirements between 4.5" and 10.5" W.C. These are real numbers your installer will want, and they're worth confirming against your gas supply before ordering.

The Flint Hill ships as a complete set — Contour burner and logs included together — and is dual-listed for both vent-free and vented decorative fireplace applications. That dual certification gives it meaningful flexibility depending on your firebox setup, though the firebox itself must meet specific minimums: 34" front width, 26" rear width, 12" depth, and 20" height. These are firm requirements, not suggestions, so measure before you order.

Ember material for the 30" model is referenced by part number 15999 if replacements are ever needed down the road.

The Flint Hill is the kind of log set that does its job without drama — consistent heat output, straightforward controls, and a realistic ceramic fiber appearance that holds up season after season.
